Every1 knows wat Indian Team is lacking. BOWLING Attack. But still no one thinks of it. We all go in pathetic ideas while selecting a coach and land up in this fashion. Y dont we take a bowling coach n start winning from BOWLING end.
What do the others think about encouraging some Aussies, Kiwis, and Sri lankans to call India their home, and become part of future Indian teams for the right financial inducements? They only have to sepnd about 6 months in India....Look what some expatriate players have done for England...
Why some people are attacking Dhoni where as the total team is failed. Responsibility to go to management and captainship only. No one else,pls dont attack players like this. All they are talented, just uproot politics from the BCCI,everything will be solved.

Comeon chattergie, grow up, you see how dhoni bat, he never look as a good batsman, and he cant play on turning and slow pitches, i saw him playing in westindies lastyear and he is clueless on those pitches and he look same in world cup also, he came into team as a hard hitter and now he make enough money and settle down, start giving the statements like, cricket means not only 4's and 6's, i have to settle down and win the game, yes, but he is not suppose to forgot he can only win the matches by his old style only, he spend nine hours for his haircut, after that all the matches he played i dont see nine hours he batted. so, stop backing these fools. ONE LOVE AND PEACE

Dhoni is concerned to India n Pak pitches. He's still a baby in Forign pitches. Inspite Dinesh Karthik might have made a difference in SL match. Ask him to stop advertising and start practicing on Forign picthes.
These are indian pitches so he will score runs once he goes outside he will be a sitting duck.outside india his scores will be 10,0,0,20,25. His excuse will be I did not get enough overs to bat.

yes ur wright. What is the use scoring runs in domestic tournaments. If they continunously fail outside india.
If the board dont want to exclude the senior players,give them rest for atleast two tours Let them try some young blood like Ravindra sing Jadeja,Manoj Tiwary,Rohith Sharma,Joginder,VijayaKumar Yo Mahesh,Abu nachim Ahmed,Piyush Chawla etc...? Where is Gourav Dhiman.In his first world cup (U19)he was a very good swing bowler partnering RP SING,in his second worldcup he became a hard hitting opening batsman.He is not bowling frequently now.This is the problem of indian cricket that is why india is not producing good allrounders.RS Jadeja is a good left arm orthodox bowler who can bat at any position,and a very good fielder too in the inner ring.Manoj Tiwary is a good batsman who can bowl good legbreaks.Joginder sharma can bowl 10 overs with an ecconomy better than ajith agarkar.He can bat at any position from opening slot to 10th.Piyush chawla is a good allrounder with nice loopy legbreaks and a gutsy batsman.
If Groupism is there Try Dravid as captain eventhoug he is not aggressive Dravid Joginder Sreeshant Robin Uthappa Shikkar Dhavan Gourav Dhiman Manoj Tiwary Rs Jadeja Piyush Chawla Rohith Sharma AN Ahmed V Yo Mahesh Dhoni Pathan

Abhishek from Mumbai is an allrounder. He is definitely a better player

I would suggest dropping Dhoni (for karthik), and Pathan (for Bose from Bengal). Munaf patel and Zaheer should be retained...
